Bonhams will be holding a special vehicle auction called “The Golden Age of Motoring” to sell over 50 antique and classic collectible vehicles starting on November 3, 2023, from their premier location on Bond Street in London, United Kingdom.

With over 25 lots featuring vintage and classic vehicles from the late 19th to the early 20th century, it’s like taking a step back into the birth of motoring. Not only are these cars drop-dead gorgeous and oozing with elegance, but they’re also incredibly rare and valuable.
